Activities Conducted by FundeSur in June 2023

Below, we present a series of activities conducted by the FundeSur organization in June 2023 in support of community assistance and social welfare.


Who Are We?

We are the Foundation for the Development of the Southern Zone - FUNDESUR, the social arm of the shrimp farming industry. Since 2014, thanks to strategic partners, we have been improving the quality of life for thousands of families in the southern zone, becoming one of the main forces for social redemption.

A Glimpse of Hope in the Ophthalmological Brigade!

We are pleased to share the valuable support we are providing in the second stage of an important ophthalmological brigade, in collaboration with our Rotary Club allies. We have successfully conducted the evaluation of 15 individuals from the communities of Azacualpa, El Triunfo, Montelimar, and Montecristo in Namasigüe, who have been assessed for future cataract surgeries planned for the month of July.



HYPERTENSION AND DIABETES CLUB

In a remarkable display of solidarity and international cooperation, we have received a second container from MAP International. This valuable donation, valued at over 43,000,000 Lempiras, consists of a wide range of critically important medicines and medical supplies. This container arrives at a critical time for the country's public health, as health centers have been struggling to meet the demand for essential medicines and medical supplies. Thanks to this generous contribution, 25 health centers in Honduras will greatly benefit and be able to provide quality care to thousands of patients in need across the country. We are aware of the crucial importance of having these resources to maintain a healthy lifestyle and achieve optimal control of medical conditions. We will continue to work hard to provide services and resources that improve the quality of life for our patients. We thank all participants for their commitment and our team for making this valuable event possible. Together, we will continue to move towards a healthier and empowered community.

HELPING THOSE IN NEED

Taking action with eco-stoves in 5 communities

Traditional stoves, used daily for cooking, emit large amounts of smoke that spread inside homes, causing harmful effects on the eyes and lungs, and eventually leading to respiratory illnesses. In collaboration with Proyecto Mirador, we have delivered a total of 111 eco-stoves to 5 communities in Choluteca: El Palenque, El Fantasioso, El Tulito, El Bosque, and Santa Lucía. These eco-stoves offer numerous health benefits to these families and represent economic savings due to reduced firewood consumption. We are committed to improving the quality of life in the communities we serve, and this initiative is an important step in that direction. We will continue working together to implement sustainable solutions that promote health and well-being in our homes.

"Thanks to the fruitful collaboration with the Mirador Project, we have positively impacted the lives of 5 communities in Choluteca, providing them with a total of 111 eco-stoves. This initiative promotes health, well-being, and a more sustainable future for all."


Committed to the Environment

During this event, approximately 1,000 plants of various species were planted, promoting awareness about the importance of reforestation and motivating families to take concrete actions. The community's response exceeded all our expectations, and we are overflowing with joy! People of all ages, from children to adults, were excited to take home their own plants and contribute to positive change in our natural environment. We firmly believe in the power of small actions. While planting a tree may seem like a small gesture, when an entire community comes together, we can achieve a significant and lasting impact on our planet. We are delighted to see how the community has embraced reforestation, and we look forward to continuing to foster positive change in the future. Thank you to everyone who participated in this wonderful event and to those who support our environmental initiatives! Together, we are building a greener and more sustainable future for all.



ELECTRIFICATION PROJECT

LOS PRADOS 2 COMMUNITY, NAMASIGÜE

With great satisfaction, we are pleased to announce the successful completion of the electrification project at the 18 de Noviembre School, located in the Los Prados 2 community in Namasigüe. This project, valued at over 117,300 lempiras, has been an important step towards improving the educational facilities and learning environment for students. The electrification project included electrical installation in three classrooms, a computer laboratory, the kitchen, and the school's storage room. The main goal has been to improve lighting and ventilation, providing children with a more suitable and comfortable learning environment. Thanks to this initiative, students at the 18 de Noviembre School will enjoy better clarity in the classrooms, which will enhance concentration and academic performance. The final delivery of the electrification project at the 18 de Noviembre School represents a significant achievement for the Los Prados 2 community and a step forward in improving educational quality. This effort reaffirms the importance of investing in school infrastructure to provide a safe and suitable environment that promotes student learning and growth
